As of the date of this Statement, JD Investment BVI has been registered as the holder of all the returned shares, i.e., a total of 78,061,780 Class A Shares of the Issuer (the “Returned Shares”).

As described in Item 3 above and Item 6 below, which descriptions are incorporated by reference in this Item 4, this Statement is being filed in connection with the acquisition of the Returned Shares by JD Investment BVI pursuant to the Termination Agreement. Upon the closing of the share transfers contemplated under the SPA in November 2020, the Reporting Persons had transferred to Hopeful Tourism all Class A Shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by them. However, due to the failure of Hopeful Tourism to pay the purchase price under the SPA, the relevant parties finally entered into the Termination Agreement to have the Returned Shares returned to JD Investment BVI. As a result of the transactions described in this Statement, the Reporting Persons acquired approximately 21.0% of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding shares. In connection with the transfer of the Returned Shares, the Reporting Persons plan to appoint a director to the board of directors of the Issuer, and the Issuer has agreed to cooperate on the appointment of such director.

The Reporting Persons have no present intention to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, and they intend to review their investment on a regular basis and, as a result thereof and subject to the terms and conditions of the documents described in the Statement, may at any time or from time to time determine, either alone or as part of a group, (i) to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, (ii) to dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the Issuer owned by it in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise or (iii) to take any other available course of action, which could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in the next paragraph of this Item 4. Any such acquisition or disposition or other transaction would be made in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and subject to the restrictions on transfers set forth in the documents described in the Statement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, each of Reporting Persons specifically reserves the right to change its intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to its course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), each of the Reporting Persons currently expects that it would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the Issuer’s business and prospects; other developments concerning the Issuer and its businesses generally; other business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons; changes in law and government regulations; general economic conditions; and money and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.
